More than two months ago, she invited He Yucai to the small room where her son was on duty. When he was almost naked, Chen Qi knocked him unconscious from behind with a stick. Then Li Zhenzhen and her son buried him in the snow, trying to freeze him to death.
Li Zhenzhen explained to her son that the man had been harassing her in private, and had even tried to assault her. He also threatened to spread rumors about her if she dared to report him to the police. Li Zhenzhen had no other choice but to resort to this drastic measure.
Chen Qi trusted Li Zhenzhen a lot. Since he lost his voice and suffered a lot of bullying, and after helping his sister have an abortion, Chen Qi became much more assertive. When he heard his mother's words, he just clenched his fists and said with resentment that he would listen to his mother.
The matter started successfully, but when the mother and son were about to dig out He Yucai's body, they were caught red-handed by Captain Gao, who was patrolling nearby.
He didn't come over at the time; he just glanced at them and then took away the team members who hadn't yet noticed what was happening. It wasn't until Li Zhenzhen and her son threw He Yucai's body into the large coal stove that supplied hot water that he stood in front of them again.
When Li Zhenzhen first saw Captain Gao, she did panic for a moment, but after he pretended not to see her and left with his men, she calmed down again. If this person didn't catch her in the act, then she had room to maneuver.
Moreover, He Yucai was already dead, and since they had already done it, there was no turning back. Li Zhenzhen had no regrets about killing He Yucai.
Li Zhenzhen sent her son away and faced Captain Gao Ren alone. Gao Ren asked with a serious expression, "Why did you kill him? Who was the victim?"
Li Zhenzhen pretended to be very calm, but her voice trembled slightly as she replied, "This person tried to assault me, and I accidentally killed him. I don't know his identity. I did it all by myself. My son doesn't know anything. He only helped me because he had no other choice."
Gao Ren's expression was complicated. He often led people to the supply depot to collect living supplies for some people in the main area, so he was quite familiar with Li Zhenzhen. He had a good impression of this beautiful woman.
Gao Ren said, "You can tell us what happened, and we will help you solve your problem."
Li Zhenzhen's eyes were red and moist: "It all happened so suddenly, it's too late to say anything now. If you want to arrest me, then arrest me now. I have nothing to say."
Gao Ren said helplessly, "The bodies are already gone, so why should I arrest you? But this kind of thing must not happen again. If anyone dares to bully you again, just go to our security team. We will not stand idly by."
With tears in her eyes, Li Zhenzhen asked, "Are you going to let us go?"
Gao Ren sighed: "What I hate most in my life is bastards who bully women."
Li Zhenzhen wiped away her tears and replied stubbornly and coldly, "It was your own choice not to arrest me today. Don't try to use this to threaten me in the future. If I were weak, I wouldn't have resisted and killed someone."
Gao Ren looked at Li Zhenzhen, whose tone was firm but whose face showed weakness: "I'm not that kind of person. Don't worry, I'll pretend that what happened today never happened, but you can't do it again in the future."
After that, Li Zhenzhen's life returned to normal, but Gao Ren slowly integrated into her life, subtly and quietly, and with great discretion.
Seeing her mother's silence, Chen Jiaojiao couldn't help but ask, "Mom, is he pursuing you? If we can't find Dad anymore, will you stay with him?"
Many people have died in the shelter. I heard that other shelters are in the same situation. They finally managed to establish a radio communication network, but not long after, many shelters lost contact again.
Chen Jiaojiao heard from Mo Ze that many shelters lacked food, clothing, medical care, and heating, and that riots and disorder had already broken out. There were many places outside that were in chaos, and their shelter was currently strengthening its defenses in order to prevent internal strife and external threats.
In this situation, Chen Jiaojiao felt that it was foreseeable that her fathers might have an accident, but that didn't mean she wanted her mother to find another man.
Chen Jiaojiao didn't want her mother to remarry. Apart from being tall and strong, Captain Gao had no other redeeming qualities. She looked down on him and felt there would be no benefit in marrying him.
Li Zhenzhen tapped her daughter's head: "What nonsense are you thinking? Captain Gao is just someone I have a lot of contact with at work. There's no way we could be together. Besides, I'm living a good life now and I'm not thinking about finding any other men."
Chen Jiaojiao pouted and then brought up her purpose for coming today: "Mom, why don't you take a few days off and bring your little brother to stay at my house for a few days? I think that old woman is more restrained when she sees you, so why don't you come and keep me company for a few days?"
Li Zhenzhen frowned: "Your brother is still sick and can't be moved easily."
Chen Jiaojiao: "Wrap Qiqi up tightly. I'll call a car to take us back. I have everything at home, including medicine. Maybe my brother will recover faster if he goes there."
Li Zhenzhen was so annoyed by Chen Jiaojiao's nagging that she thought for a moment and said, "Let's see if your brother's condition improves this afternoon. If it does, I'll agree to your request."
Chen Jiaojiao nestled on Li Zhenzhen's shoulder: "Mom, if that old hag were gone, it would be so much better. With only Mo Ze left, that softie, it would be much easier to deal with."
Hearing her daughter's words, Li Zhenzhen couldn't tell whether she was speaking from the heart or had some idea in mind, so she remained silent.
Chen Jiaojiao continued, "She's so old. Many of the elderly people in the shelter didn't make it through. How come she's so resilient? I'm increasingly convinced that there can only be me in that family, not her. Lately, she's been taking Moze out a lot. Even in this cold weather, she sneaks out. I can't believe she's up to anything."
